It has been reprinted several times: It goes trough the 9th ed.
(3950 ptas.) My copy is the 6th edition from 1988 (now XXVI + 780 pp.). It
contains a "Suplemento bibliogr‡fico a la tercera edici—n" (pp. XIII-XIX)
that actualises the bibliographical references to 1972, and a new section
devoted to the Gnostic apocryphal gospels in Coptic found in Nag Hammadi
(Evangelios de Tom'as y Felipe), only in Spanish translation with a very
extensive bibliography up to 1987, but no facsimiles at all.
The bibliography adds only 1 item on PEgerton 2:
U.Gallizia "Il P. Egerton 2: Aegyptus 36 (Milano 1956) 29-72. 178-234.
The volumes of the BAC are still cheap (but not what they used to
be). You can find them on http://www.adv.es/bac/ but they don't seem to
provide any address here over the Earth. In my copy of Otero's book it
appears the following address for book orders:
